hello guys,

Ive just signed onto the site had my mondeo for around 6 months now and have never had any issues with the car,

right to the problem

it started when me and the misses went for a short drive to her nans we pulled up and got out the car, she was unloading the boot as she closed the boot the buggy slammed against something and made a very large bang in the foot, I jumped into the car to move it and the car would not start but keeps ticking, the car was then push started and fired right up, I turnt it off again and the same happened,

I got the car home and changed the battery for a fully charged one and the car fired right up the first time but now the issue had come back but it will fire up, it seems to be when the battery is under load I turn on all the flights blowers and radio and it struggles to start but will eventually fire up,

what could be the issue guys being a young family its frustrating due to money

any help would be fantastic

thank you
